Democrat Congresswoman Admits Gun Registry Meant To ‘Find’ Guns

Many Democrats insist that they really don’t
want to take away our guns or impose a national gun registry on
Americans. Others are more honest about their ultimate goal. Take
Democrat Representative Sheila Jackson Lee, Democrat of Texas, who
recently said she does, indeed, want a national gun registry so that she
can track and identify all gun owners.

Rep.
Lee joined anti-Constitution protesters outside the National Rifle
Association’s annual conference on Houston, Texas at the end of May. At
the protest, Lee told the media that she was in favor of a national gun
registry, something few Democrats have the guts to admit.

At this protest, though, she made a slight attempt to spin her desire to track every gun owner by claiming that all she really wanted was a way to “find” guns when they are stolen. How a national registry of gun owners would do that she did not say.

Lee
claimed she was offering a “hand of friendship” to gun owners with her
proposals to limit their rights, track them like criminals, and ban many
of the very guns they might want to own.

But
if she wants a list of Americans exercising their Constitutional
rights, one wonders if she thinks there should be a government registry
of bloggers, or newspaper employees who dare to exercise their First
Amendment rights. If not, why not?

Rep.
Lee also harped on the tired “banning assault weapons” bandwagon during
the protest. One would ask criminal James Brisbon’s targeted victims if
they think this is such a great idea after they stopped their attacker’s murderous intentions with their own AR-15, one of the very guns that Jackson Lee wants to ban.

Of course, a National registry is only one step away from nation wide gun confiscation. In fact, it necessarily will result in
gun confiscation as whenever gun laws are changed it will force
authorities to use the registry to go take away any newly banned guns.
It already happened in Australia and Canada. It has happened here, too.
Late last year New York laws were used to confiscate guns from citizenswhen
its newest gun laws were passed late last year. Despite what Democrats
blithely claim today, it would happen here, too.Worse, that is their
intention.

Don’t tell us that government won’t use laws to confiscate our guns. It’s already happened.
